Hunger Crisis In Zimbabwe – Millions require food aid

2.8 million Zimbabweans face hunger crisis due to drought that has affected food production in most parts of the country.

The International Red Cross has launched an urgent appeal for funding. The organisation is reported to be facing a shortfall of $23.9 million for its programs in Zimbabwe which include home care for people infected by HIV.

Have you ever thought about helping your fellow Zimbabweans back home?

I know a number of  Zimbabweans who are involved in different projects helping the community. No matter how small or little, like they say in the Tesco advert “Every little helps”.

Think about it, what are you doing to help your family, extended families and the communities that made you what you are today?

How can Zimbabweans in the diaspora help communities back home? Feel free to share your views.

Fresh Green Maize – Memories of the good times in Zimbabwe

This is that time of the year when farmers start enjoying the benefits of all that hard work in the maize fields.

Ende madiro andinoita chibage chakagochwa, hama dzangu ndinobva ndafunga kumusha.

Thanks to Mr Mwanaka, at least we get fresh maize even though it doesn’t taste the same. Hapana chimwe chibage chinonaka seche ku Zimbabwe.

Zimbabwe Food – We love sadza ne mabhonzo with green vegetables

Sadza is our staple food in Zimbabwe, a thick porridge made from maize meal.

It goes down well with Beef Stew and Vegetables - In fact there are so many things you can eat with Sadza as long as you don’t forget chili.

I prefer with Mabhonzo ne muriwo plus green chilies, but kana ne mbeva rinoita futi. Not so sure ne mukaka…….. vamwe vanofarira ne ma Guru kana Matumbu.

Sadza re Chibataura handisiyane naro even kuno ku England………ko imi munofarira Sadza here?
